Every year, nearly 500 cases of cow smuggling or murder are registered across the state, the report said. The BJP-led state government, however, added that the number of cases of cow smuggling reduced after setting up of police check posts in Alwar and Bharatpur areas. “Swift action against cow smuggling increased after 2012 as police registered 463 cases across the state. A total of 526, 582 and 481 cases of cow smuggling were registered in 2013, 2014 and 2015 respectively,” the report said.
